MetShield HT Underlayment

Best-in-class MetShield ice and water underlayment protects the roof structure from water seepage caused by ice dams and wind-driven rain. Designed specifically for high-temperature applications of Steel, Aluminum, Copper, Zinc*, CRCQ and A606 roof installations. It will resist temperatures up to 250° without degradation of the adhesive, and self seals around roofing nails, screws and clips used to install the primary roofing system. This high-tensile strength underlayment is a 40 mil SBS modified bitumen with a UV-resistant anti-slip polyethylene woven top facer and is required under all Drexel Metals roof warranted systems.
